2014 Acura TSX vs. 2015 BMW 328 Review

Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the BMW 328 than the Acura TSX, due to its greater head- and legroom.
The BMW 328 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Acura TSX.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Acura TSX as you will with the BMW 328, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Acura TSX is clearly a better financial choice over the BMW 328.
Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The Acura TSX and the BMW 328 have similar Destination Charges.

Handling
